I am a visual artist who expresses on 3-D objects. In my work, I like to recycle materials and create new objects in the form of art with a function. For example, giving new life to old tables, trays, walls or making sculptures, by using glass from old windows, pieces of CD-ROMs, eggshells, old screws, etc.
When I create, I want to have a story behind the project. Sometimes I have prepared an idea, but most of the time they come under the workflow, when the memories appear during the on going process.
My inspiration comes from people, music and nature.
